Carvers will work together in teams on an 8' bear carving that will be auctioned off Sunday afternoon with 100% of the proceeds going to fight cancer. Quick carve events will be held Friday and Saturday afternoon where carvers create complete works in one hour. These works will be auctioned off after the carvings are completed.
